  • Summary: Assume the role of Gabe Logan, a highly-trained Precision Strike Operative, commanding a black box United States Agency that legally doesn't exist. Gabe finds himself dealing with a beautiful woman from his past who harbors a shocking secret while he battles the Red Section, a para-military group in possession of Project Dark Mirror, a next-generation weapon of mass destruction. Using Precision Strike Tactics, advanced vision technology, and the latest in high-tech weaponry, Logan and his team perform surgical strike missions - too sensitive for a military response, too dangerous for civilian intelligence forces. Through the role of Gabe, players will have to be quick to strategize, as he is responsible to infiltrate, recon and execute decisively. Once inserted, Logan is his own authority - he must make life and death decisions, quickly choosing which course of action to take. [Sony]… Expand

    Dark Mirror has its ups and downs with the transition over to the PS2, but that still can't change what a solid action game it truly is.

    Stick to the PSP, and Dark Mirror won't let you down.

    A good game with decent, no-frills graphics and excellent sound. It offers more action than most third person action games and the explosions are always much more fun than sneaking around corridors in the dark.

    It's exactly what I was expecting. I absolutely loved this game on PSP, and this gives me more of what I love plus a control scheme that I found more comfortable. My one complaint about the game (I had the same complaint on PSP) is that you can no longer manually restart a mission at the last checkpoint as you could in SF2 and SF3. If you blow your cover in a stealth mission and want to start from the last checkpoint, you either have to restart the entire mission, or allow yourself to be killed. It's a minor complaint, but it does become aggravating at times. I'm not at all interested in online play, so not having that feature available means nothing to me. While this is a great game, I think that the $40 price tag is a bit much for a port of year-old PSP game. All things considered, it's a worthy addition to any PS2 collection.… Expand

    It was pure crap and a waste of time no where near as good as SF2 & 3.It seems that after the third one the game just gets even worse.
